Summary

Fountain Central High School is a public high school located in Veedersburg, Indiana, serving grades 6-12 with a total enrollment of 508 students. The school is part of the Southeast Fountain School Corporation, which is ranked 197 out of 380 school districts in Indiana and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Fountain Central High School's performance has seen some fluctuations in recent years. Its statewide ranking has ranged from 117 to 319 out of Indiana's high schools, and its SchoolDigger rating has varied from 1 star to 4 stars, currently at 3 stars. The school's graduation rates have remained relatively stable, ranging from 87.2% to 91.7% over the past few years, but its chronic absenteeism rate has been a concern, reaching as high as 19.2%. Academically, the school has performed better in science and English Language Arts than in math, with mixed results compared to the state and district averages.

Compared to nearby high schools, such as Crawfordsville Senior High School, North Montgomery High School, and Seeger Memorial Junior-Senior High School, Fountain Central High School's performance is generally lower, with these nearby schools having higher statewide rankings and better test scores. The school's high percentage of free and reduced-price lunch recipients (over 50%) may be contributing to its lower academic performance, and addressing the factors behind its chronic absenteeism could be an opportunity for improvement.
